In large bowl, combine coconut, sweetened condensed coconut milk, vanilla and salt (if using). Stir well. Drop by spoonfuls into mini muffin tins. Press each one down in the middle to create a little nest.

Bake until golden brown on top (about 30 minutes). Let cool on wire rack. Remove with off set spatula or butter knife. Mine were pretty sticky. Once cooled completely, melt chocolate chips and add a little to some of the nests (optional). Add jelly beans to the nests to complete the look. Chill to harden.

Sometimes inspiration hits when you're in the Target Dollar Spot. I'm usually inspired to spend money there but this time I actually was inspired to make something.

It was there that I spotted these cute packs of tassels. They looked like earrings to me--the trendy kind I've been coveting. I love anything with a tassel or pom pom! To make the earrings I needed two packs of the tassels and some earring wires.

I found the earring wires at Joanne Fabrics and used a coupon so they were $1.15. The tassel packs were $1 each.

I used some pliers to open the hoop on the tassel and insert the earring wire, then closed it back up again.

This whole project took minutes and I was left with two pairs of earrings for less than $1.50 each (I have leftover earring wires for another project).

I've been getting lots of compliments on them too. They are super light and I don't even feel them when I'm wearing them.
